Question
Chapter 10, Problem 113QRT
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The data required to check whether the given assertion is valid has to be stated.
Concept Introduction:
Photosynthesis is the process that occurs in plants for the formation of food and energy required by the plants for their survival. The photosynthesis process is also responsible for maintaining the balance of carbon dioxide content in the environment. Plants take up the carbon dioxide from the environment during the process of photosynthesis which is released by the human all day long.

The 24 power plants in Baltimore metro area collectively emit about 40,300 metric tons of CO2 per day (www.carma.org), thereby increasing the level of greenhouse gases in this region. To counter this, environmentalists plan to plant trees in the area.
How many moles of CO2 are emitted by these power plants every day? (1 ton =1000kg, molecular weight of CO2 is 44g)
If on average 500 moles of glucose are synthesized by a tree each day, how many moles of CO2 can a single tree convert to glucose in a single day?
How many trees need to be planted to reabsorb all the CO2 released into the atmosphere every day by these power plants?
If a single tree occupies an average of 8.00 x 10-5 sq miles, what percent of the area of Baltimore city needs to be forested to counter the CO2 emitted from power plants alone? (total area of Baltimore city is 92.00 sq miles)
A sample of 1.91 g of potato chips was burned in a calorimeter. The calorimeter was calibrated to have a heat capacity of 6.94 kcal/ °C. The heat released caused the temperature of the calorimeter to increase 1.36 °C. Calculate the food caloric content of the potato chips in nutritional calories per gram to three significant figures. Recall that 1 nutritional calorie (Cal) = 1 kcal.
